GENERAL INFORMATION

For recording, make sure to use special audio discs only. These discs are marked “Digital Audio” and with the logos shown below.

Two different types of audio discs are usable on this CD recorder:

– CD-Audio Recordable (CDR) discs

These discs can be recorded once and will play on all standard CD players and CD recorders, when finalized.

– CD-Audio ReWritable (CDRW) discs

These discs can be recorded, erased and rerecorded many times and will play on CDRW-compatible CD players and CD recorders, when finalized.

All Philips CD players and CD recorders with this sticker are CDRW compatible.

To ensure proper working of the unit, we recommend the use of Philips audio CDR and audio CDRW discs only.

Note: Do not use a computer CDR or CDRW as recording will

not work properly!

Recording is permissable insofar as copyright or other rights of third parties are not infringed upon.

In some countries, the use of the Philips CDR Mini Hi-Fi system as shown or suggested in this user manual may require the authorization of copyright holders.

For playback on this CD changer and CD recorder you can use the following audio discs:

– All pre-recorded audio CDs

– All audio CDR and audio CDRW discs

Notes: – Do not try to play a CD-ROM, CD-I or CDV!

– CDR(W) discs, which are recorded on a computer,

can only be used when they are correctly treated according to the audio standard (IEC958: Consumer part). Single session only!

If the CDR Mini Hi-Fi system fails to read discs correctly, use a commonly available cleaning-CD to clean the lenses before submitting the unit to repair. Other cleaning methods may destroy the lenses. Always keep the trays closed to avoid dust on the lenses.

The lenses may cloud over when the unit is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a CD(RW) is not possible then. Leave the unit in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

To take a CD(RW) out of its box easily, press the center spindle while lifting the CD(RW). Always pick up a CD(RW) by the edge and put it back in its box after use. Never write on a CD or attach a sticker to it. Write only on the printed side of a CDR or CDRW, and only with a soft, felt-tipped pen.

To clean a CD(RW), wipe it in a straight line from the center toward the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage the disc!

INSTALLATION

The type plate is located on the rear of the unit.

1 Check whether the power voltage as shown on the type

plate corresponds to your local power voltage. If it does not, consult your dealer or service organization.

2 Make sure all connections have been made before

switching on the power supply.

3 Connect the supplied power cable to AC MAINS ~ and to

the power outlet. This switches on the power supply.

For optimal performance use only the original power cable.

When the unit is switched to standby, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the unit from the power completely, remove the power cable from the power outlet.

To avoid overheating of the unit, a safety circuit has been built in. Therefore, your unit may disconnect under extreme conditions. If this happens, switch the unit off and let it cool down before reusing it.

The speaker connections are click-fit connectors. Use them as shown below.

1 Connect the colored (or marked) wire to the red terminal

and the black (or unmarked) wire to the black terminal.

2 Connect:

– Left speaker to L (red and black) – Right speaker to R (red and black)

AM antenna

The supplied loop antenna is for indoor use only.

1 Fit the plug of the loop antenna to AM AERIAL as shown

below.

2 Position the antenna as far as possible from a TV, VCR or

other radiation sources.

3 Turn the antenna for optimum reception.

FM antenna

The supplied wire antenna can only be used to receive nearby stations. For better reception we recommend using a cable antenna system or an outdoor antenna.

1 Open the FM AERIAL 300 Ω click-fits by pushing the lever

down as shown below.

2 Insert each wire of the antenna into one hole.

3 Close the click-fits using the lever.

4 Move the antenna in different positions for optimum

reception.

The unit complies with the FCC-Rules, Part 15 and with 21 CFR 1040.10. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received,

including interference that may cause undesired operation.

ABOUT RECORDING

The CD recorder deck offers you 3 main functions:

– Recording from the internal CD changer and tuner or

from a selected external source

– Finalizing your CDR(W) discs and unfinalizing your

CDRW discs

– Erasing a CDRW disc

The recording procedure is the same for CDR and CDRW discs. Make sure the CDR(W) is absolutely free of

scratches and dust particles.

For recordings, the minimum track length is 4 seconds. You can record up to a maximum of 99 tracks on a disc. The minimum of recording time left on the disc is 7 seconds. Otherwise Disc Full is displayed and you cannot enter the record standby mode.

The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) prevents the making of a digital copy from a digital copy. The system allows making a digital recording from the original, however in some countries this may require the authorization of copyright holders.

When you try to record copy protected material from an external source, Copy Protect will be displayed. No further digital recording is possible then.

When you try to record copy protected material from the internal CD changer, no digital recording is possible, however the CD recorder will automatically switch to analog recording.

Recording CD text

If the original CD has CD Text, this text will be recorded automatically, provided that the CD text is not copy protected. In that case, recording of CD text will not be possible and Text Protect will be displayed.

The CD recorder is equipped with the high-performance Direct Line Recording technique. It ensures a perfect recording of the source material, meaning a true “bit for bit” recording. DLR will always become active when you make normal recordings in listen mode.

Auto Level Control ensures that the tracks on the recorded disc have a similar volume level. At all times the already recorded tracks of the CDR(W) disc will be taken as reference for the volume level of the following recordings. ALC is active when

ALC is shown.

Auto level control becomes active when:

– COMPILE CD is being used, – a disc, a track or a track edit is being high speed recorded

and the CDR(W) has recordings on it, or

– a program (consisting from more than one disc) from the

CD changer is being high speed recorded.

Auto level control will not become active when:

– using

COPY CD

– making recordings from the FM tuner, – making recordings from an external source, or – making normal recordings in listen mode.

Switching ALC permanently off 1 If necessary, press Ç STOP on the unit (Ç on the remote

control) to stop playback.

2 Press CDR to select the CD recorder.

3 Press REC LEVEL to select:

yALC off: ALC is permanently switched off.

• To enable ALC, press REC LEVEL again to select:

yALC on: ALC is enabled.

You can adjust the reference record level. This is also possible when ALC is active. This feature can be used for fading your recordings in or out.

1 Keep REC LEVEL on the unit pressed to enable the rotary

control to adjust the record level.

2 Turn the rotary control to the left to adjust the desired

record level.

yThe actual record level (in dB) will be displayed.

• The record level is reset after the unit has been switched to

standby.
